Reflective display device
A reflective display device includes an electrophoretic display (EPD) module, a supporting member, a first anti-reflective layer, and a color filter (CFA) layer. The EPD module includes an array substrate, a protective layer, and an electronic ink (e-ink) layer. The e-ink layer is between the array substrate and the protective layer. The supporting member has a first surface and a second surface opposite to the first surface. The first anti-reflective layer is located on the first surface of the supporting member and in contact with the supporting member. The thickness of the first anti-reflective layer is ¼ wavelength of a visible light. The CFA layer is between the protective layer and the second surface of the supporting member.
1. A reflective display device, comprising:
an electrophoretic display module comprising:
an array substrate;
a protective layer; and
an electronic ink layer between the array substrate and the protective layer;
a supporting member having a first surface, a second surface opposite to the first surface, and a sidewall adjacent to the first surface and the second surface;
a first anti-reflective layer directly formed on the first surface of the supporting member and in contact with the supporting member, wherein a thickness of the first anti-reflective layer is ¼ the wavelength of visible light, and there is no portion of the first anti-reflective layer extending outward from the sidewall of the supporting member;
a third anti-reflective layer formed on the first anti-reflective layer, such that the first anti-reflective layer is between the third anti-reflective layer and the supporting member;
a color filter layer between the protective layer and the second surface of the supporting member; and
wherein the supporting member is a light guide plate, and the supporting member has a light incident surface that is adjacent to the first and second surfaces, and the reflective display device further comprises: a light source facing the light incident surface of the supporting member.
2. The reflective display device of claim 1 , further comprising:
a first adhesive layer between the color filter layer and the protective layer.
